The staff were wonderful and accommodating & it felt welcoming right from the start. Wish I had checked out the restaurant at the top! The pool is amazing, but strange set up with lounges/chairs. Would be great to have more loungers. The gym is the BEST! Great set up, clean and has everything you need for a hotel workout. The Spa looked incredible, although we didn't make a booking there. The "Harbor Views" were the only downside, we just looked out on a busy highway, but all good- the amazing location made up for it.

The room was very nice, though we'd been led to believe it was on a higher floor. Which would have given us a better view outside. The cleaners were very late servicing the room (around 2pm) and even then didn't clean the toilet properly. It's a good hotel, but I don't understand why they charge more than some of their competitors when the standard doe justify it.

The hotel and staff are really good however we had a rough start to our stay, which was not aligned with the reputation of the hotel or the price paid. Our check in was delayed by 30 mins, which required follow ups from us on progress and then the same experience with baggage delivery to our room. It felt like all the staff were overwhelmed. Fortunately after we got in our stay was very pleasant and we loved the hotel.
